the beginning of the end...

Last night was the first of many showers before the wedding, and I must say that it was pretty entertaining. I'm not a shower person but it was good, so a big THANK YOU to Stacey, Jan, Bri, and Steph. We started out by eating, (chicken salad sandwiches, my favorite!) and then we played this lovely game. There were three teams, and they had to make bridal gowns out of toilet paper and tape.

These were the three different brides...
Jenny, Steph, and Kate

Because I was the final vote on the gown, I was the officially baby holder. Something I didn't object to.

Cute Cali. Just had to throw a picture of her in here.

This was the winning bride with her bridesmaids.
Kate, Rebekah, Morgan, and Amy

Stacey decided that I look like a Who from Whoville when I put my face like this, so she had to take a picture. Thank you Jenny for the lovely headpiece/vail.

Movie essentials from Bri. Perfect gift for us, because I swear that's all we do.

And this is the must-have for a 2009 grocery shower, a re-usable grocery bag. Both of my sissies had this lovely idea. :)

We made a haul. Seriously, we got so much food, and we have nowhere to put it at this point. It is now sitting in a corner in my bedroom until John finishes the kitchen in the apartment...which hopefully is early next week. Eeek. I don't know if I'm ready for packing. It is my biggest enemy.
